Is your vapor canister working? 

How about the vent in your tank? 

Fuel level? 

Fuel pump age? 

Wondering if the pump is failing or if the fuel tank is not venting properly. 

A quick test would be to cycle the key a few times until the pump won't prime 
any more and try a restart. That will tell you that it is a fuel flow issue 
from an overheating pump or a vapor lock issue. 

Another thought would be that the coil is getting warm and failing. 

I fought a similar problem in my old Daytona. Had to go through every connector 
under the hood and pull the power module to fix the grounds tucked away in 
there. Swapped the MAP, TPS, HEP, etc. 

Had a fuel pump fail in that car before that though, that was pretty obvious 
since the pump wouldn't prime with the key in the run position and I had no 
codes. 

Had another car have a similar issue to yours, but it only did it once when the 
rubber feed line broke as I pulled into the parking lot at work. That could 
have been much more exciting since I had a huge puddle of gas building under 
the front of the car very quickly.

Do you know of a fix for vapor lock? I'll try anything.

Hi All 
This is the 2nd time its happened, driving along with the A/C on 95 
outside 
temp. and she just loses power and dies. The first time (about 1 month 
ago) I had it towed home when it got there it started, I didn't do 
anything to 
and drove it everyday till yesterday it died again but this time I waited 
till it cooled about an hour and I did change the Hall thing in the dist. 
(I carry a spair) it started and I drove home. It took sometime before it 

would drive, missing with the gas pedal its like no fuel or bad spark.
